Model the content before choosing the CMS
An article, a staff profile, and a downloadable report have different fields. We identify the content types, required information, relationships, and media your site uses. Clear fields make editing easier and help keep public pages consistent.
We also map who drafts, reviews, and publishes. Where needed, the CMS can include preview, scheduling, approval steps, and separate access for editors and administrators. We choose the workflow with the people who will use it.
Custom CMS, headless CMS, or an existing platform
A headless CMS supplies content to a separate website or application through an API. It can be useful when the same content appears in several places or the frontend needs a distinct design. It also needs a clear plan for previews, hosting, and ongoing development.
We can assess an existing platform before recommending custom CMS development. For migrations, we map old fields to the new structure, preserve important URLs or redirect them, and check media and internal links before switching over.
